4. Legal basis

Contractual obligation

We may process your personal data as stated above to perform necessary precontractual activities to sign the contract
between Candidate and 5CA. In such a case, we must process Candidate’s personal data to fulfill the contract (Art.
6(1)(b) GDPR). If the opposite is the case, it will not be possible for you and us to perform the necessary
precontractual activities to hire you.

Legitimate interest

Based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, we may process your personal data for the legitimate interests of 5CA which are
the background checks (excluding the background checks needed by local laws applicable to Candidate) and the necessary
assessments of your eligibility per Candidate’s position.

Failure to process this data constitutes the impossibility to proceed with your application. You have the
right to object under Article 21 of the GDPR.

Consent

Based on Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, we may process your personal data based on prior, freely given, informed,
unambiguous and specific consent. You are free to provide your consent and have the right to withdraw it at any time.

Right to withdraw consent

You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending a request to privacy@5ca.com. If you change your decision, it will
not affect the lawfulness of processing your personal data based on consent before its withdrawal. This means we will
not further process your personal data from the moment of withdrawal, but the processing activities performed beforehand
will still be legitimate.

Necessary for a legal obligation

To comply with our legal obligations, 5CA may process your personal data for such purposes particular, in case your
personal data are subject to a conflict to which we are a party, we might need to process and disclose your personal
data to authorities and persons we require to use our right to defence such as attorneys, experts and courts. We may
process your personal data to fulfil these legal liabilities and to use our right to defence. We also use this legal
ground to process your personal data at the end of the application process where additional details and documents are
needed to start and proceed with the onboarding process.

5. Reference Contact

If Candidate provides Reference Contacts’ personal data to us, Candidate hereby accepts and guarantees that they
disclose the data of the reference contact in a CV or similar resources with 5CA pursuant to the knowledge and consent
of the relevant Reference Contact, and all responsibility will belong to Candidate if the Reference Contact requests and
claims otherwise.

6. Retention Periods

5CA gives utmost importance on not keeping your personal data longer than necessary. To ensure that personal data is
kept for no longer than necessary, we apply retention periods concerning the category, sensitivity and the purpose of
personal data processed. This also depends on the stage of your recruitment, in particular, when you are rejected or
accepted, consent you have given to 5CA, as well as 5CA’s legitimate interests and legal obligations of local affiliates
and subsidiaries. When you accept the job offer, the retention periods will correspond to the contract you will sign,
and the privacy policy or notice related to such contract and personal data provided to onboard you.

Where technically possible we set automated retention periods so after a reasonable period your personal data will be
anonymized or deleted. The established retention periods are reviewed and updated regularly.

7. Sharing personal data with third parties

Personal data of Candidates is provided to parties that assist 5CA in the recruitment process and to 5CA affiliates and
subsidiaries for which Candidate will perform future’s contractual activities. The parties that assist 5CA in the
recruitment process are the Recruitment Management Platform vendor used to centrally manage your application process and
the parties that assist in performing eligibility, language, skills assessments, and other types of necessary checks per
certain role. When Candidate or Reference Contact contacts us via recruitment platforms such as LinkedIn or email, the
providers of those platforms will process personal data as per activities via the registered account on such platforms.
Data of Website

Visitors (if it constitutes personal data) is hosted by our website hosting provider and processed as per
Section 10. All the above-mentioned parties use their own systems and vendors to support performing the service for the
purposes listed above.

8. Data transfers, storage, and processing globally

Most of the parties provided in Section 6 are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA“), in particular – in
the Netherlands and some may be located outside of the European Economic Area, for example, in United States, United
Kingdom, Argentina, Uruguay, Hong Kong, South Africa, Ukraine, Philippines, Turkey. This will also depend on which of
our affiliate or subsidiary you apply to. Where your personal data is stored outside the EEA, and when such a country
does not have any binding adequacy decisions from the European Commission (such decisions guarantee your data is safely
sent outside EEA), we will ensure an appropriate level of protection for the data transferred by providing adequate
contractual (such as Standard Contractual Clauses), organizational and technical safeguards (jointly referred to as
adequate safeguards“). We also require vendors to act appropriately to protect the confidentiality and security
of personal data, especially for your personal data processed outside EEA. You can ask for a copy of such adequate
safeguards via privacy@5ca.com

9. How do we protect your information?

We have implemented commercially reasonable technical, organizational and security measures designed to protect your
personal data. Ensuring the security of your personal data is particularly important to us, which is why we have taken
different technical and organizational measures to ensure this. In particular:

  • We use regular prevention, detection, and response systems to scan and mitigate potential vulnerabilities and reduce
    security risks,
  • Your personal data is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of your
    recruiters, hiring managers, maintenance, and security teams on a need-to-know basis and who are required to keep
    the information confidential as per Zero Trust approach. In addition, the information is encrypted with Secure
    Socket Layer (SSL) technology,
  • We implement a variety of security measures when you enter, submit, or access your information to maintain the
    safety of your personal data.
  • As the security of information depends in part on the security of the computer, device, or network you use to
    communicate with us and the security you use to protect your user IDs and passwords, please make sure to respond
    appropriately to protect the information you send us as well.

    data controller, in a commonly used, machine-readable format,
  • You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data when such personal data is no longer necessary for
    the purposes for which it was collected, or when, among other things, your personal data has been unlawfully
    processed. However, please keep in mind that we may not delete all your personal data as we may still need to keep
    it for our legitimate purposes such as establishment, exercise and defence of legal claims,
  • You have a right to access personal data held as to request a copy of the personal data that we hold about you.
    There are exceptions to this right, so that access may be denied if, for example, it does infringe upon the rights
    and freedom of others or if we are legally prevented from disclosing such information,
  • You have the right to withdraw your consent: If you have provided your consent to the collection, processing, and
    transfer of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent fully or partly. Once we have received
    notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose(s) to
    which you originally consented. This means we will not further process your personal data from the moment of
    withdrawal, but the processing activities performed beforehand will still be legitimate.
  • You can exercise your rights by submitting a request to privacy@5ca.com

    Subject to legal and other permissible considerations, we will make every reasonable effort to honour your request
    promptly in accordance with applicable law or inform you if we require further information to fulfil your request. When
    processing your request, we may ask you for additional information to confirm or verify your identity and for security
    purposes before processing and/or honouring your request. We reserve the right to charge a fee where permitted by law,
    for instance, if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. In the event that your request would adversely
    affect the rights and freedoms of others (for example, would impact the duty of confidentiality we owe to others) or if
    we are legally entitled to deal with your request in a different way than initially requested, we will address your
    request to the maximum extent possible, all in accordance with applicable law.
